Reggie Bullock was unveiled as the Clippers' newest draft pick on Monday afternoon, and so was his new uniform.

Standing alongside, the jersey bore No. 25, the same number new Clippers' coach Doc Rivers wore during his NBA career, which included a one-season stop with the Clippers.

"Being a Clipper, coming to one of the best cities in America, playing for one of the best coaches and playing for a great team, I'm just trying to bring whatever I can to this team just try to help them out the best way possible," said Bullock, who was the team's first-round pick in last month's NBA Draft. "I'm just going to play my game. They've seen so much film on me they know what I'm capable of doing, which is shooting the ball and defending. So I'm just trying to be effective on defense and knock down the shots when they come to me."

It's the only event the Clippers could go public with as they reshape their team under Rivers. The Clippers have apparently agreed to deals that will also land them J.J. Redick, Jared Dudley, Darren Collison and perhaps soon Antawn Jamison.

Those moves, of course, coincide with guard Chris Paul re-signing as a free agent.

But the Clippers do know what they have in Bullock, who left North Carolina after his junior year.

Rivers, whose son Austin played for Duke, has seen the 6-foot-7 Bullock extensively. He fits in with the Clippers' search for 3-point shooting and perimeter defense.

And as a youngster, Bullock played for Paul's AAU team in North Carolina.

"I've known (Rivers) for awhile and it's great to just have someone like that, like another father figure in my life," Bullock said. "He definitely rooted against me for a year, and now he's been rooting for me for a while.

"I played for Chris Paul's first AAU team, 15-and-under. He was a great person in my life, he's helped me through the process, training and traveling around with the team."

Bullock has already spoken with Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan, the core of the starting unit as the club sets out to improve on the franchise-record 56 games it won in the 2012-13 season.

Bullock, who had his first practice Monday afternoon, will also be on the team's summer league team, which begins play in Las Vegas from July 12-22.

Evidently, he's more than ready to start.

"As a team, putting on the Clippers jersey, I feel like we have to go out there with the attitude we're going to win the whole thing," Bullock said. "I know these guys are hungry but it's a chance for everybody to go out and show what we're capable of doing.

"We're coming to take names and try to win basketball games every night."

The scouting report on Bullock is that he is more of a shooter than a player who will try to get to the basket. And at his size, he believes he will be able to cover either big guards or small forwards.

"I just (want to) play my game, continue to work on my ballhandling, become a better all-around basketball player," Bullock said. "I try to be Reggie Bullock, but there's players that I try to take from their game and add to my game. I like Klay Thompson, I like Danny Green, Ray Allen. I try to bring that defensive attitude too. As long as I can be a good defender, I feel like I can make a name for myself."
